Arapahoe Sheriff Skates After Dumba$$ Bowling Alley Brawl

Why won't Arapahoe County Sheriff Tyler Brown face criminal charges for taking part in an ultra-stupid brawl at a local bowling alley? In part because everyone involved in the scrap may have been drunk, including him. But while Denver District Attorney Beth McCann won't be prosecuting Brown, she disapproves of his actions.

"Having concluded that criminal charges are not warranted, I want to make it clear that the behavior of Sheriff Brown in this situation was irresponsible and unprofessional for an elected sheriff," McCann said in a statement. "I am not in a position to take any further action with regard to this situation, as my role is to determine if criminal charges should be filed. I will leave any further action to the officials and voters of Arapahoe County."

When reports about an investigation of Brown first surfaced late last month, few details were available. But an arrest affidavit obtained by Denver7 after McCann's conclusion paints a portrait of escalating stupidity.

During an August 21 visit to Pindustry, a new entertainment complex in Greenwood Village, Brown is said to have been upset when a man persistently asked for his wife's contact information, eventually tossing the prospective suitor's phone over his shoulder. The sheriff later told investigators that when another dude tried to grab a woman in his group, he put him into a "twist-lock."
